Donora Smog of 1948 Remade American Air Policy
Donora Pennsylvania faced a lethal four day smog in October 1948 that killed 11 people and sickened about half the town. The disaster spurred federal and state health inquiries and helped spark the early clean air movement leading to the 1955 Clean Air Act. The town’s population declined from 14,000 to about 5,900 as mills closed and emissions from zinc works and coke plants trapped by a thermal inversion devastated daily life and local memory.
